Shadows Over Boston Issue 3: A Deadly Night at the Museum! The Exhibits Are Alive?!

WEBVTT
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:32.719
What's that shit we say again?
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.000
Uh face forward True Believers.
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:37.840
Yeah, face forward True Believers.
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:42.000
I forget if we I mean I I remembered it at the last minute, it's like, oh very face forward true believers.
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.079
I'm like, did we do a different one for Shinobigami?
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:44.880
We didn't, did we?
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.960
No, you you just do it instead of me.
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:47.759
Oh, okay.
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:51.600
Uh face forward uh true cheesers.
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:52.320
Yeah.
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:52.880
Yeah.
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:54.560
Cheese and beefers.
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.320
I don't think we can be talking about beefers on the podcast.
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:08.719
And welcome back to uh Shinobigami set in the reboot uh universe.
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:10.000
I almost said masks.
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.920
My brain is not entirely screwed on today.
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:12.319
Don't mind.
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:19.840
He said, welcome back to Shinobi Gami, and I literally tried to say in my brain, tried to filter in big gay nerds, you know.
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.000
So uh it's fine.
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:27.200
I did admittedly, before we started recording, the thing my brain wanted to say is like, uh, what's up everyone?
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:30.239
It's Big Gay Nerds or whatever it is that Jenny says on that program.
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:32.400
Uh I am Saturn.
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:33.359
Uh they them.
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.560
I am your GM for this game.
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:38.480
Uh they them GM.
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:42.719
Damn, I could I could be making 20 bucks a month on Patreon with a hand.
00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:43.920
I know, right?
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:56.000
Uh I play uh everyone who isn't being played by one of these three, uh, who I will now introduce in the order they appear for me on Zencaster.
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:57.200
Let's start with Oatsie.
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:00.879
Hi everybody, I am Otsie.
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:05.439
My reaction time is slowed as a result of my horrible migraine.
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:08.400
I have also been introduced first, which means I am the weakest.
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:09.919
Tragic.
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:11.039
That's not true.
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:15.199
I got nothing.
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:16.240
I play Chris.
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:17.280
Um that's right.
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:22.719
Chris, the the the MIT uh graduate.
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:23.919
The short queen.
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:24.719
Short queen.
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:25.919
Short stack queen.
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:26.080
Yeah.
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:27.599
Excuse you.
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:29.520
Short short stack princess.
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:34.400
She's like 13th in in a long line of like Spanish Spanish succession.
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:36.960
You gotta keep you gotta keep that grind set on.
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:39.439
You know, you gotta you gotta you gotta have that ambition.
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:47.759
Oh, things did not go very well for her last time vis-a-vis the uh not having uh her elf upper classmen kidnapped.
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:57.439
Uh as she just kind of walked out more or less uh with very very little prompting, uh that which is a problem I'm sure that we will get to.
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.439
Uh after Otsy is uh Sarah.
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:03.039
Hi, it's me.
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:05.759
I play Fairplay, aka Zephyr.
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.000
I guess it should be the other way around considering her actual legal name is Zephyr.
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:14.400
Um but her code name is Fairplay, don't worry about it.
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:23.680
Um she is an agent of the state, specifically the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, uh, you know, what remains of the state.
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:31.759
The only thing that will survive of the state in the in after the reboot is um the bus and the post office.
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.039
And the subway.
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.879
That's true, yeah.
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:44.560
Um, as we saw last time, uh seemingly propelled by some sort of moving uh water system of some sort.
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:46.560
Yeah, God knows how that works.
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:49.039
Um it's a lazy river subway.
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:49.599
Yeah.
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:51.520
It could be.
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:54.400
We might find out more about it, but probably not today.
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:55.120
Okay.
00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:02.080
Uh last time things went okay for uh fair play, as she did manage.
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:08.719
She did not manage to abduct the elf for her employer's own dark purposes, uh, but she did manage to beat some clowns up.
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.759
And really what else could you ask for?
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:13.439
It's always good to beat up clowns.
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:14.080
Just ask bad.
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:18.959
Yeah that's that's right.
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:22.000
She did bad and looked good doing it, which is all you really want.
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:23.279
So true.
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:25.519
You didn't get perfect, so I win.
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:26.240
That's right.
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:27.439
That's how that works.
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:28.160
Yeah.
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:42.160
And last but certainly not least, the original, not original GM for this system, the original GM for this setting, uh, who will be returning to his rightful throne before too long, at least for the time being.
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:43.120
Uh, it's Ben.
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:44.639
Yes, I am Ben.
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:45.439
I play Dr.
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.560
Owen Song, who is a citizen of Innsmouth.
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:59.439
Uh, and uh he was is just a regular ordinary doctor who just happens to know a lot of people, and by people I mean things.
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.720
Things from beyond the veil.
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:06.079
He's got friends on the other side, etc., etc.
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:06.800
Yeah, you know.
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.240
And on the far side and on the low side, and on the upside.
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:10.720
Oh.
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:12.319
Whatever kind of carry Larson.
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.920
Whatever kind of sides you got, Owen knows people there.
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.839
Got friends on the far side, and it's just cow tools.
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:25.519
It's just a bunch of cows and ladies with beehive hairdo's and uh big cat eyes uh glasses.
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:27.360
Yeah, exactly.
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:28.959
Really funny looking cavemen.
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:29.279
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:37.279
Uh it would be a funny retcon to be like the the voice that guided you last time just keeps reframing the pages to be like far side strips.
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:41.199
So it's just like kind of italic text under a single panel on the page.
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:42.000
Yeah.
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:44.399
God, something to consider.
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:46.319
Uh let me think.
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.000
How are we how are we getting into this?
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:54.079
Because we have to do our first, our introductions with everybody before we get to the meat of the action here.
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:56.639
Uh, we should also clarify that I won last time.
00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:57.759
That's right, you did.
00:05:57.920 --> 00:05:58.800
I forgot to mention.
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:03.040
You came in there, you got that that fancy dancy book you were trying to get.
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:13.040
You uh got the the haughty elf lady to leave with you of her own volition uh for whatever reason she wanted to do that.
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:14.000
You didn't ask.
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:15.839
I told you after why.
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:17.519
I told you all after why.
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:18.000
Yes.
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:19.279
But like, you know.
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:27.360
At the time, though, she was she was very compliant, and it's probably good for your cause in some nebulous way that I'm sure will be an issue.
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:37.279
Well, to clarify in canon, by the way, the reason that Owen was able to convince her is because she got knocked unconscious, and since he's a doctor, he's like, you better come look with me to see if you got concussed.
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:38.160
That's right.
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:42.240
And she she went along with that without any kind of resistance whatsoever.
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:42.639
Yeah.
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:51.839
Uh and it definitely had nothing to do with her kind of wanting to not be uh forced to live in the extra-dimensional void library uh anyway.
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:56.639
So, you know, uh an Owen-shaped excuse is as good as any.
00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:58.959
Print that on his shirt.
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:03.360
Oh, and an Owen-shaped excuse.
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:04.800
As good as any.
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:06.560
That's right, baby.
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:09.600
That's that's the uh the tagline of his of his clinic.
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:11.279
It's as good as any.
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:11.839
Yep.
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:13.120
That's a great one.
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:13.759
God.
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:15.199
Wonderful.
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:23.519
Uh as we uh have our we get our panning shot over uh I almost said post-apocalyptic.
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:25.839
It's kind it's only kind of a post-apocalyptic.
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.079
Like everything's still around.
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.800
It's it's so it's like mid-apoc.
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:33.199
It's apocalypse adjacent.
00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:34.879
It's para-apocalyptic.
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:35.519
Yeah, I guess.
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:36.560
Oh, that's good.
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:54.319
As we as uh the camera, we get like a big establishing shot over para-apocalyptic Boston with its uh eerily quiet skyscrapers, but still seeming like like you can get like it's a kind of lower angled, like from outside of town, and like there's still people like walking around doing shit.
00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:03.360
Uh I feel like I feel like something that would have shown up very briefly in the introductory sequence for last issue, but you definitely get a good shot of here.
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:09.360
Is there someone who is just sort of inexplicably dressed like a Quaker amongst the uh throngs of people?
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:12.720
Yeah, uh just like push pushing carts around or whatever.
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:18.639
Uh yeah, then Mormon, the Mormons and Quakers, they've probably got this apocalypse shit on lock, you know?
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:19.199
Oh yeah.
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:21.199
Oh yeah, the Amish are doing great.
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:26.639
Ben, make Ben, make a note for your campaign that at some point we need to go to Utah.
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:29.519
Oh, I've got plans, don't worry.
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:30.480
Great, great.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.840
I'm excited to find out what the reboot Mormons are up to.
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:41.039
I can tell you right now the exact same thing they would be doing any other time of the year.
00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:45.200
Weird dances and making fucked up Coke drinks.
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:45.840
Mm-hmm.
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.320
Mm-hmm.
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:52.639
But then how are they getting how are they how are they getting non-caffeinated Coca-Cola in the post in the post-para apocalypse?
00:08:56.320 --> 00:08:58.000
Oh, you can make cola by hand.
00:08:58.080 --> 00:08:59.039
It's not hard, actually.
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:00.720
That sounds miserable.
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:03.919
Well, it is we we are talking about Mormons.
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:05.600
Anyway, yeah, it's true.
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.879
Thanks for cutting out before I made a Simpsons reference, so go ahead, Sarah.
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:14.399
The narrator voice from last time cuts in over this uh tableau.
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:18.320
I forget I I forget exactly the shape of the voice I did.
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.120
I know what I was trying to do with it, but I don't remember how I did it.
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:31.679
It's been one month since our protagonist's first fateful meeting at MIT's Hayden Library Palace, now shunted into extra-dimensional space, wherever it may be.
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:38.080
At the time it was but one of the many skirmishes which had defined Bostonian life in the last several years.
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:44.799
How that encounter reverberated into the future was not known yet to any who took part.
00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:47.679
That would change before too long.
00:09:48.480 --> 00:10:01.120
Uh and the camera not the camera, but like the next panel, we get a shot of the I forget what it's actually called, but the Boston Red Sox Stadium.
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:02.240
What's it called?
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.159
Uh Diamond City.
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:06.159
No, that's a different thing.
00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:07.600
Fenway Park.
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:08.240
Yeah.
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.120
We we get we get a shot of Fenway Park or legally distinct.
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:15.840
I don't know how they are about licensing Fenway Park.
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:17.440
I'm sure it's fine, right?
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:18.080
It's fine.
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:24.240
Well, you don't all you do is you just don't have the name of it, but it's very clearly a reference photo of Fenway Park.
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:24.799
Yeah.
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:32.080
It it's just you just see park, and then the thing that's above it is cut off by like a a passing bird or something.
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:33.679
A passing soup.
00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:35.200
A passing soup?
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:37.600
Someone just flying like every single soup.
00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:38.399
I don't know.
00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:40.320
You meant like a can of soup, probably.
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:43.679
Just like random floating bowl of soup.
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:45.279
Well, it's it's it's soup man.
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:47.440
The uh guy's gotta be.
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:50.320
Why are you trying to watch baseball at the soup store?
00:10:50.879 --> 00:11:02.879
Honestly, all you have to do is just do a close-up of the big green wall with a the obvious like Coca-Cola like billboard always is, and just have it be like some legally distinct, horrible name for a cola product.
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:03.919
Schmoka Cola.
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:05.120
Schmoca cola.
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:06.320
RC Cola.
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:06.879
Wait a minute.
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:08.559
Uh wait a minute.
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:10.960
Uh Coke of cola.
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:16.559
Coke it's it's combucha, but spelled with a C and with like the legally distinct font.
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:22.720
With the with still with the swerve the the little Honestly, honestly, Sat or uh Ben, Coke of Cola.
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:28.399
I'm just now imagining like horrible thing.
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:35.200
Like it it is it is just like instead of a can, you're literally given like a cold coke and you just squeeze the drink out.
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:38.559
Well, I was thinking they this one has the cocaine still in it.
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:40.000
Ah, different coke.
00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:41.200
Ah, the reboot.
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:42.399
We love the reboot full.
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:45.360
I was thinking of coal like a cold coke.
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:46.879
I see.
00:11:47.759 --> 00:12:01.919
Um, but we cut inside of Fenway Park onto the field, which despite its uh like facsimile to a baseball diamond uh on the outside, there's very clearly something sort of different going on.
00:12:02.159 --> 00:12:13.840
Where in the middle of this baseball diamond, uh kind of like I don't I would say like the corners touching like the lines that you would run on as like a runner, all right?
00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:19.600
Uh they've made like sort of a square inside, like there's like a like a sumo ring almost, right?
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:29.120
Uh and there's uh you see like a bunch of people gathered around as these two figures are doing combat in the middle.
00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:34.720
Uh, and they seem to be bouncing something between them very rapidly.
00:12:34.799 --> 00:12:38.000
Uh, there's it's like dragging like streaks across the panel.
00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:55.279
Uh, and then we cut to this sort of uh a fairly anonymous-looking person wearing a like baseball player's uniform, as then this baseball makes contact with their shoulder and just tears it really horribly.
00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:57.519
There's like a big impact.
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:06.080
And then uh there is uh like a bell ring from from the outside uh as a voice calls from off-screen.
00:13:06.320 --> 00:13:11.120
Enough! And then we cut to the victor in this struggle.
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:16.320
Uh, a young woman, maybe about like 17 years old.
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:20.480
Uh she's also wearing sort of baseball clothing.
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:34.879
Uh, she has very bright like shoes and arm guards and stuff, and a jacket tied around her waist, uh, with a metal bat over one shoulder that is like smoking in part of it from where the last impact was.
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:46.159
Uh, she looks fairly stoic, uh, has a ponytail up that seems to be like kind of turning into like mist as it sort of wisps away a little bit.
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:51.759
Uh, and she turns to face uh the voice that called to her like silently.
00:13:51.919 --> 00:14:05.360
And uh we get someone who is I would best describe this as like sitting hands-on knees like samurai in armor style, but it's a full set of umpire gear.
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:05.919
Right?
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:07.200
Okay.
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:08.240
Yeah.
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:17.120
Uh and the voice says to her, Kazuko Uehara, you have proven yourself worthy to inherit the Red Ring.
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:23.279
However, there is one more task before you before you can take this right.
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:30.720
You must defeat your predecessor and lay his soul to rest.
00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:35.039
You will go to the MFA.
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:38.159
He will be waiting for you there.
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:51.600
And with a sort of uh an unreadable expression somewhere between like annoyance and like determination, she nods silently at this.
00:14:52.960 --> 00:15:01.120
Uh next, we cut from this stranger who we have just met, uh, to what order did I put you in on my notes?
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:25.519
Uh then we cut back as to uh uh a room that is sort of like a uh let's say like a very traditionally like carpeted wood wood office desk, uh bookshelves, uh a little lamp with a lampshade on that isn't on uh but remains there plugged into the wall as though uh maybe someday it will turn back on.
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:32.399
Very um very common sight in the post-report world to see people leaving electronics plugged in just in case.
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:40.879
Yeah, they the lampshade's very clearly covered with dust because the person in this in this office has not bothered to clean it in quite a long time.
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:53.039
Uh and we get a little like uh title, like a little like title card in the bottom, right, that says Cambridge, Massachusetts, uh Office of the Engineering Program.
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:55.840
It's and it's like office of the engineering program director.
00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:56.559
Right.
00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.039
Um Chris, what is this person like?
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:03.519
Tell me like a thing or two about this person, your program director in the engineering program.
00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:06.399
Oh, I'm sorry.
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:12.960
Like what like what part?
00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:17.440
Like just a description of the room or um the the the the the question.
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:21.039
I uh oh the question is uh tell me tell me a little bit.
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:28.399
Your Chris right now is having a meeting with the pro like with the program director of the engineering school.
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:28.799
Yeah.
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:30.960
What's this person like?
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:32.960
Like tell me something, like one or two things about them.
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:36.240
What they look like, what they're what they are like, that sort of thing.
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.320
I need you uh so.
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:43.679
How do you describe it?
00:16:44.000 --> 00:17:06.160
Um I feel like post-reboot, all of the MIT, like the MIT sort of like alumni have changed pretty drastically to be from being like a bunch of normal engineering nerds to like there's either grog nards left, right?
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:12.799
So like real old sweaty, like try-hard like neckbeard style like nerds.
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:34.400
Or because it is MIT, uh it's a bunch of feds who have nothing better to do, but they had like uh you know, like an engineering degree, so they just go, they went back to things that they knew that how to do now that they no longer have access to like massive information databases online.
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:37.359
And this guy's one of them.
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:43.200
He's just relatively tall, uh like six foot two, kind of bald, very buttoned up.
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:45.920
He looks like he looks like a spook.
00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:53.279
Um I I don't know how else to describe him other than like he kind of looks like Skinner from the X-Files.
00:17:53.759 --> 00:18:00.400
I was gonna say I I'm kind of imagining someone he sounds a little bit in my mind's eye that uh what's his fucking name?
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:02.480
The bad guy from Persona 5.
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:03.680
Yeah.
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:04.559
Yeah.
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:08.799
Uh I know exactly what you mean.
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:23.279
Um, so he's uh sitting at this desk, and uh Chris, you've it's been a month since uh that shit happened, and you know, uh your uh Dr Dr.
00:18:23.440 --> 00:18:43.759
Pin uh she it's less that you let her get kidnapped and more that she just kind of like left uh the she was not like stolen away by like six goons with guns or whatever, like a guy just sort of helped her up and she just got out of there, right?
00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:54.640
Uh and there were students nearby who saw her teleport everybody out while you were like unconscious and then just walk away, basically, with this stranger.
00:18:55.039 --> 00:19:07.200
Uh the investigations into your behavior uh vis-a-vis uh people with too much time on their hands at MIT trying to cause problems for you have passed uneventfully.
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:10.799
Uh they did find your guy who took that weed.
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:16.480
Uh, and you know, I he's past tense now.
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:24.000
Uh uh that there is no there is no more weed in his future nor any future for him to speak of.
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:25.839
Uh that's that's about right, yeah.
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:26.720
That's about right.
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:30.559
Um and uh this this guy, uh what do I have?
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:37.039
Uh his name, let's just say his name is Dr.
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:39.519
Gildenstern.
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:41.039
Yeah, Dr.
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:42.000
Gildenstern.
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:42.559
I like that.
00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:42.880
Good.
00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:44.559
He's gilded and he's Stern.
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:52.559
Uh and the doctor, uh, he says, uh let's see, what does he call you?
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:56.240
Because he's definitely not the kind of person who would actually just call you Chris.
00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:10.079
Uh I think he calls you Signora Orlan, uh like like with your last last name that's not even fully correct, and it's just like the kind of guy who can't be corrected, right?
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:11.759
You can certainly try.
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:19.680
And he says, Signora Orlan, as it happens, we have more work for one of your particular talents.
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:22.559
I know the last month hasn't been easy.
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:32.559
And he like kind of like he puts like a pencil to his mouth as though he's like it looks like he's someone who's used to smoking a vape.
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:41.119
Um, but you know, there's no vapes and he never beat the ha the oral fixation, so he just keeps putting stick-like things to his mouth while holding them like cigarettes.
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:45.440
Could have just used normal cigarettes.
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:48.000
We live in the we live in the cool future now.
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:50.960
No, I don't smoke, he says.
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:54.400
Uh having been having only ever vaped.
00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:59.519
Play uh superimposed panels of him vaping in the background.
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:06.400
A new job, huh?
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:10.400
Um, I mean it'd be nice to be able to stretch my legs again.
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:23.759
I uh I mean I I I do like doing a lot of paperwork and stuff, but um you guys always had me work as uh, you know, like scavenging team, so I'm I'm I got a little used to the fieldwork, you know?
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:28.799
Yeah, and I think you might like what we have in mind for you.
00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:39.839
See there's been since uh the former Well, I suppose she's not formerly a doctor, former alumnus, Dr.
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:48.480
Penn, went and ghosted us uh with our entire library, which God knows where.
00:21:49.119 --> 00:22:04.079
We've been hunting for somewhere else we can start reestablishing our information apparatus, and we happened to have come up with a pretty good spot at Actually, closer to Boston in Boston downtown proper.
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:08.720
It just needs to be uh cleaned up, let's say.
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:15.279
Something a woman of your scavenging talents might be pretty good at, if I do say so myself.
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.160
I suppose I could do that.
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.960
Um whereabouts downtown?
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:34.160
Well, it wasn't up for grabs initially, but in the month or so after, uh the MFA has been having some issues lately.
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:41.839
The prior occupants were driven out by a gestures, nebulously with his hands.
00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:48.079
Something people say, uh I don't know if you can believe it, ghosts.
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:57.839
And then he like kind of like does this like really big like the expression type smile, like he's like stifling a laugh, but not really, you know?
00:22:59.279 --> 00:23:12.079
He's like, and I don't know anything about all that, but we've got people who are lined up to move in and start setting up shop if you can make sure it's safe for them to do so.
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:19.599
Figure out whatever's going on with the quote unquote haunting or whatever Scooby-Doo nonsense is going on there.
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:20.559
He looks at the camera.
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:21.920
Can I say that, Scooby-Doo?
00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:23.839
Well, uh, too late, too late now.
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:25.759
And then he looks back at you.
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:39.279
And I think it would be I think that considering everything else that's happened so far, it'll be a great next step for the brass rats and what we're gonna do with Boston once it's ours.
00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:41.839
Just a scout and clear, right?
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:42.400
Okay.
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:44.000
I think I can just about.
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:49.440
Well, um how soon do you need me to work on that?
00:23:50.799 --> 00:23:57.519
And uh he kind of scratches his head, he's like, well, uh actually, this is a great question.
00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:01.920
I'm like, oh, I hadn't actually planned uh No, yeah, this is actually this is actually much better.
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:04.240
And he goes, uh, how about today?
00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:07.039
I guess I can clear my schedule.
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:08.240
Yeah, sure.
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:14.559
Uh if I can if that just means uh uh putting off some paperwork for another couple of weeks, I can do that.
00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:18.960
There won't be any issue with the paperwork if this works out, I'll tell you that much.
00:24:19.359 --> 00:24:20.240
Oh, great.
00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:24.480
Well, um happy to do it, boss.
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:29.119
She gives a a little uh just a cutesy little wink and a salute.
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:40.240
He does a uh like a two-finger cool guy salute back at you that he does not look like he can sell at all and just says, knock him dead, or uh opposite of dead, I guess.
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:41.200
I don't know.
00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:46.079
I don't know how ghosts work either, so uh, I guess we'll figure that out uh in my report.
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:48.720
Yeah, call them a learning experience.
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:52.960
I've always wanted to do that Ghostbuster shit.
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:54.799
She says she just walks out.
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:55.440
Uh-huh.
00:24:55.920 --> 00:25:03.279
Uh so now I can uh send you uh your mission and secret uh real quick.
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:09.200
I'm juggling so many open tabs, I keep forgetting where I am.
00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:13.119
Where do I take up here?
00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:20.079
Here is your mission and your secret.
00:25:31.119 --> 00:25:31.359
Okay.
00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:33.599
Okay.
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:34.720
Okay.
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:40.960
Uh where did the next Ah, here we go.
00:25:43.839 --> 00:26:12.400
Uh so we cut back to another familiar place, uh a similarly a more uh Spartan-looking kind of long office scenario, sort of an open plan that looks oddly like a converted train car on the inside, uh, as we get a title card that says uh Boston, Massachusetts, uh the Metro Tunnels uh mobile MBTA headquarters.
00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:25.599
Uh and we get a return to the office with Zephyr and her Fairplay, excuse me, her professional name, and her handler, uh, whose name did we name her?
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:30.960
Did we name Oh Saturn, you're asking the wrong person if we didn't named her handler.
00:26:31.119 --> 00:26:31.920
I don't think we did.
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:41.279
I say didn't have time to believe because I think it was we didn't get enough of the handler to determine a name would be necessary.
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:44.799
Let's say I think we did say it was an older woman, didn't we?
00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:48.480
Yes, an older I think we said an older Asian woman.
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:55.599
In my mind, just sort of like Mina Shinobigami other podcast, but like aged 50 or so.
00:26:56.079 --> 00:27:02.640
Look, uh first issue to second issue, you know, uh you can soft retcon things because they haven't been established yet.
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:04.880
That's older Asian woman.
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:06.799
Uh she had tattoos, I remember as well.
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:07.279
Yes.
00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:08.559
Uh very cool looking.
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:11.920
I think she has sleeves rolled up, wearing like a suit vest kind of situation, I believe.
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:17.279
Let's call her uh she should also use a code name, I suppose.
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:20.000
Uh this is Agent Black Sheep.
00:27:20.319 --> 00:27:21.119
Oh, cute.
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:21.519
Okay.
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:27.839
And uh uh she's like, she's smoking an actual cigarette.
00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:29.680
Uh she's not a poser.
00:27:29.920 --> 00:27:34.240
Yeah, in her office, and she's like, fair play, need a light.
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:37.200
No, I'm trying to cut back, actually.
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:38.640
Oh, shame.
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:44.480
I was gonna have you run over and light me a second one from uh an No, she wouldn't say that.
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:46.720
We'll save that joke for if it becomes relevant in the future.
00:27:46.799 --> 00:27:47.039
Yeah.
00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:50.960
Me, me, I I I I had GM moment.
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:59.119
I there's a thing that is there's someone slash something in this office who I am like trying to find a good way to have peer as a panel.
00:27:59.599 --> 00:27:59.759
I see.
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:00.720
It will happen.
00:28:01.039 --> 00:28:01.680
Okay, okay.
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:02.960
We'll get there.
00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:12.079
Uh and she says, Well, you did pretty well at the at that last shindig up in MIT, all things considered.
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:13.839
Been keeping busy since.
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:17.440
Uh whatever you guys send me on, mostly.
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:24.319
Just trying to uh suss out who those uh interesting characters I ran into were.
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:28.559
There's some real freaks in Boston, if you didn't know.
00:28:28.799 --> 00:28:30.480
Oh, trust me, I know.
00:28:31.839 --> 00:28:43.200
She like looks forlornly at over at like like a filing cabinet over in the side, which you notice has a photo in a frame that has been turned face down.
00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:46.240
Intrigue.
00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:51.680
Too many interesting freaks in Boston for my taste, but what can you do?
00:28:52.640 --> 00:29:02.559
We did hear something interesting, and well, without any other agents around who are particularly no, how would she say this?
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:12.000
She'd say, Yeah, we got something we need done, and you're the only person available at the moment, so you're gonna have to do whether you like it or not.
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:14.880
That's working for the government, isn't it?
00:29:16.240 --> 00:29:16.880
Yeah.
00:29:17.200 --> 00:29:20.319
And she smiles as though she's really pleased about that.
00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:20.720
Right.
00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:23.839
She she gets some sort of sick satisfaction out of that sentiment.
00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:25.599
Uh, God only knows why.
00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:31.039
Uh and she says, You heard about that shit that's been happening at the MFA in the last couple weeks?
00:29:31.279 --> 00:29:32.640
Heard the rumors.
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:35.279
What, like about ghosts and shit?
00:29:35.599 --> 00:29:37.680
Yeah, about the ghosts.
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:46.640
Well, I don't give a shit about any of that, but we have heard, and this is uh how'd she say this?
00:29:47.440 --> 00:30:02.880
I have heard from our source from higher-ups, let's say, and some discerning sources who shall not be named, and she kind of like does a sort of imperious hand gesture when she says that, like, she's like, don't even bother asking, right?
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:05.279
It's not not your not your clearance level.
00:30:05.519 --> 00:30:06.079
Right.
00:30:06.640 --> 00:30:14.400
There's been something that we've that has been cited there that wasn't there before.
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:21.119
But even though it wasn't there before, we have records saying it was there before.
00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:24.319
But no one remembers it being there before.
00:30:28.240 --> 00:30:29.279
Weird, right?
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:30.160
Weird.
00:30:32.319 --> 00:30:40.880
Anyway, uh the big the big the top brass up there think it might be relevant to whatever it is they're doing.
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:44.559
Some well, that's for me to know, I guess.
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:45.680
You to find out.
00:30:46.079 --> 00:30:47.119
Many such cases.
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:49.359
Chuckles at her own joke.
00:30:49.680 --> 00:31:05.119
And they want you to go get this mysterious thing that was or wasn't there, and for it to be our thing that was or wasn't there to have the boys in scientistown try and figure out what's up with it, I guess.
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:09.839
Well, I live to serve.
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:11.440
That you do.
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:18.079
Uh, and she hands you uh a document, uh, which has a highlighted phrase on it.
00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:28.000
The document seems to be a flyer for a uh like you know, you know how like museums will do that thing where like they'll have a visiting exhibit?
00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:28.799
Right?
00:31:28.880 --> 00:31:29.759
Yeah, yeah, totally.
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:31.599
We just had one, yeah, here, yeah, totally.
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:43.359
Well, there is a flyer, and this is uh uh that that strikes you so sort of oddly, where it's for their like uh uh like a visiting exhibit for their uh Asia in art section, right?
00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:51.119
And there's lots of things in there, like, oh, this uh in this in this like printed out like flyer from years ago, the paper's starting to yellow, right?
00:31:51.359 --> 00:32:04.640
You see, like, oh, here's this like beautiful, ornate like uh silk display kimono, and this like like old woodblock print or this like uh you know like a butt uh things of that nature.
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:14.559
But almost as though it has like you would describe it almost looking like there's a printer malfunction from like a drop of water, right?
00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:18.960
Like the way like when you get water on a piece of paper, it kind of like distorts the colors or whatever.
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:19.200
Yeah.
00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:31.039
And just kind of shoved weirdly into the middle of this flyer is an art is a listing for a display for like for a sword, like a display sword.
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:35.200
And it's called it the name is given as the Shinkiro Masamune.
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:49.440
And she goes, thing about that is even though I got lists that say it's real, I studied art history back before all the other stuff, you know, just thing to do when you're in your twenties.
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:51.759
How refined of you, Chief.
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:53.599
That's right.
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:58.799
Thing is, though, that ain't such a Masamune that exists.
00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:00.160
I can tell you that for free.
00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:01.599
I would have heard about it.
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:04.079
There would it it's not on that list.
00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:11.119
Got no idea what it is or why it looks like someone has extra-dimensionally vandalized it on here.
00:33:11.440 --> 00:33:15.519
But this happened around when all that spooky ghost shit started happening.
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.680
We think the two might be connected.
00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:23.039
And we'd very like to find out how, if they are, if you catch my drift.
00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:26.160
I uh I do, in fact.
00:33:26.400 --> 00:33:29.200
I love a good day at the museum.
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:30.240
Good.
00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:33.680
This one will probably be more of a night at the museum by the time you get there.
00:33:33.759 --> 00:33:37.839
Uh you're setting off next You're setting off as soon as you're able to, by the way.
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:40.799
We'd like to get this handled uh in short order.
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:45.680
And uh I'm going to send you your mission and secret.
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:59.839
Yeah, I think uh Fairplay takes her takes her flyer, looks it over one more time, folds it up, sticks it in the back of her pocket, and looks back at her cheese, and it's just like, Well, you want a coffee mug from the gift shop when I come back?
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:02.240
Oh, I stole one already.
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:04.799
Well then I'm taking one for myself then.
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:06.240
Ahda girl.
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:12.800
And uh she uh gives her own cool girl salute and uh walks out of the boss's office.
00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:18.000
She doesn't salute back, but she does like puff her cigarette in goodbye at you.
00:34:18.320 --> 00:34:19.280
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:24.079
Uh so here is your mission in secret.
00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:26.960
I'm excited.
00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:29.039
Okay.
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:34.639
Interesting.
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:35.119
Okay.
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:42.400
And last but not least, uh, we cut to a place we haven't seen before.
00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:47.280
It looks sort of like the inside of a church.
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:49.199
It's very dark.
00:34:49.760 --> 00:35:03.440
Owen, you are sitting in a pew, and you just kind of have a moment where you blink as though realizing you're here, not entirely sure how you got there.
00:35:03.679 --> 00:35:07.679
Title card at the bottom of the panel says Innsmouth, Massachusetts.
00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:08.800
Question mark?
00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:09.599
Hmm.
00:35:11.119 --> 00:35:14.239
And a booming voice from off screen.
00:35:14.559 --> 00:35:19.440
Owen, my child, it is so good to see you again.
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:25.199
This is a f a figure approaches from the uh from the back of the church.
00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:28.480
What would you call that where like the the pastor comes from normally?
00:35:28.639 --> 00:35:29.920
Uh the apse.
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:31.039
Is it the apse?
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:35.599
I know that's what it is in like basilicas and stuff, but I don't know if that's how it is in churches.
00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:36.719
The pulpit?
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:38.800
Pulpit, yeah, that's what it- Yeah, that's the word.
00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:58.239
Uh a figure steps down from the pulpit towards you who's wearing these like big heavy black robes that sound kind of like jangling chains when they walk, and their head is just appears to be like a a big fucking fishbowl with like dark fluid swirling around inside.
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:12.400
Uh and they say to you, I am so glad for what you have done for the church and the dreamer in the many in the short time that we have had at your service, my friend.
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:23.599
Well, you know, I mean, you guys help me, I help you, it's all just part of the cycle.
00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:34.239
That it is, and I am so glad in your success in bringing the Doctor Pin into our fold as well.
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:38.880
She has been quite busy, as I'm sure you're aware.
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:43.119
Uh I mean I would hope so.
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:45.679
I'm still not quite sure.
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:52.159
You know, it's been like a month, and you guys never really told me.
00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:56.960
Ah, yes, you will know in time.
00:36:57.199 --> 00:36:58.559
Worry not, child.
00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:10.960
We have had her hard at work deciphering that dreams in hemochrome book, both for purposes that will be useful to us as well as to you.
00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:29.920
Uh and you have this moment where you think back over the last month and uh hold on, let me pull up my notes real quick, because I need to reference a name, and I have that name, but I have to go through my notes to find it, and I have too many screens up.
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:48.559
Uh and you think back to uh at the beginning of last uh episode when you were meeting with uh Thomas Dufresne, who you were treating, the older man who was already in the process of uh of Librefaction.
00:37:48.719 --> 00:37:57.199
Uh and and in sin and since that, and in that time, uh he has turned significantly more into book.
00:37:57.440 --> 00:38:02.320
Uh your mind cuts back to your clinic where he is like kind of in a bed right now.
00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:13.679
Most of his legs are like he is no he is gone below the waist, basically, and there is a neatly stacked uh pile of pages like kept nearby.
00:38:13.840 --> 00:38:32.639
Uh he's hooked up to like uh he's got like an IV in the arm or whatever that uh that you have you you've been doing everything you can to figure out medical ways to continue slowing the process of Librefaction, but it seems like every new thing you try, it manages to find a way around eventually.
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:39.679
And so you've been experimenting with more and more conventional treatments, but have been getting foiled all the while.
00:38:40.000 --> 00:39:04.880
Yeah, Owen is going to, with that in mind, going to follow up on what this uh being said about knowing in time, he's going to say, uh Yeah, I don't mean to um kind of be like uh needy or or you know keep beating this dead horse, but your concept of time is a lot grander than mine.
00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:14.239
I mean, I've only got sixty years at most left, and that's me.
00:39:14.480 --> 00:39:21.039
Uh I got some some patients that probably got a month at this point.
00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:30.880
The dream will be resolved much, much sooner than you are worried about.
00:39:31.440 --> 00:39:37.360
As for your patience, uh he kind he uh what does he do here?
00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:41.760
I didn't introduce I didn't name this character, by the way, I don't think.
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:44.000
You just know him as the Harrispex.
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:45.760
The Harrispecs, okay.
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:49.519
That that's the only thing you do not have like a given name for this person.
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:50.880
They are just the Harrispecs.
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:51.920
Harry.
00:39:53.199 --> 00:40:04.800
Uh I don't think they like being called that, but they would not like they're they're also not the type to be very argumentative with it unless they are like actively trying to browbeat you about something, so they would probably let it slide.
00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:11.920
Also, Owen would not would not use such a term unless he is trying to agitate the person he's speaking to.
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:13.599
So that makes sense.
00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:23.039
And and uh the Hair Specs says As for your patience, uh before long, uh I believe no, what would he say?
00:40:23.119 --> 00:40:25.199
He would say The Dr.
00:40:25.440 --> 00:40:29.840
Pin has found something that may be of interest to you.
00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:35.039
But before she will need a little bit more time.
00:40:36.079 --> 00:40:39.519
It will be in time, however.
00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:49.119
But before we get to that, there is other things that we need of you for the fulfillment of the dream.
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:55.920
And that the sooner it is fulfilled, the sooner you will have what you want as well.
00:40:58.079 --> 00:40:58.320
Okay.
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:03.760
And hold on, let me double check on what I have here.
00:41:04.159 --> 00:41:06.400
Uh what Dr.
00:41:06.639 --> 00:41:17.039
Pin has uncovered inside Dreams and Hemochrome does pertain not only to Libre Faction, but to our objectives as well.
00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:27.519
And a particular artifact has come up in her readings which we would like to recover, as we do believe it will advance our cause.
00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:34.960
It is a blade of some dubious persuasion whose well I have a right up here.
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:41.039
And uh she uh he hands you something in in like a like a piece of paper in Dr.
00:41:41.199 --> 00:42:04.800
Penn's handwriting that is like honestly, it's kind of chicken scratch, but you get like a pretty uh pretty honestly like not a photo-realistic you'd say, but what appears to be like if you were to try and draw a picture of a thing and just did like the Detroit uh bic the Detroit fucking android drawing thing where like you just literally like fucking like laser print it with a pen, right?
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:05.280
Yeah.
00:42:05.440 --> 00:42:11.519
Like a really photo accurate drawing of what appears to be like a uh Japanese sword in its scabbard and stuff.
00:42:11.840 --> 00:42:14.320
Yeah, Owen Owen is a doctor, he's used to scribbling.
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:18.960
Yeah, and uh there's there's lots of writing beside it, and you cannot read any of it.
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:22.239
She did not she she she uh wrote this in a hurry.
00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:29.119
It's uh the you assume, however, uh that the picture will be enough to find the thing you're looking for.
00:42:29.440 --> 00:42:29.679
Okay.
00:42:30.320 --> 00:42:49.920
And uh he says We would appreciate if you made haste to recover this, as I am certain that the comings and goings of the place it rests, the Museum of Fine Arts, have been drawing attention as of late.
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:54.719
It would be better that you got there before someone else did.
00:42:55.119 --> 00:43:03.280
By the time you are back, I will we will certainly have good news to share about the the uh how would he refer to it?
00:43:03.599 --> 00:43:06.960
About the affliction you have been trying to treat.
00:43:08.960 --> 00:43:13.840
Uh Owen's gonna sit up a little bit because he was kind of like like lounging in the pew.
00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:29.119
So he kind of sits up a little bit, straightens himself up, and he kind of runs through the uh mental checklist of his current patients and their status, and he goes, Yeah, I can kill an afternoon.
00:43:29.519 --> 00:43:36.639
It'll be more like a night by the time you get there, uh, says unintentionally echoing another character from earlier.
00:43:39.199 --> 00:43:52.880
Um he studies the uh the piece of paper with the sword on it, um kind of tilts it back and forth to try to make sense of the writing, realizes he can't, and just kind of folds up and puts it in his in his coat pocket.
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:55.119
Wonderful.
00:43:55.280 --> 00:43:59.199
Uh, and so now I will send you your mission and secret.
00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:09.760
And I need a second to drink some water as I think about how I'm going to introduce the mature.
00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:12.000
Ooh, okay.
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:19.519
How's everybody doing while I drink this water?
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:26.079
I'm very interested in what how this is all going to shake out.
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:35.519
Also, I'm just kind of looking forward to a fight, but that's that's the Sarah part of me.
00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:50.159
Yeah, and the nice part is uh because you are all friends now, you can just uh because you have emo bonds, you can just like basically like learn your each other's locations and start fights very, very, very quickly.
00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:50.559
Yeah.
00:44:51.039 --> 00:44:52.480
I'm so happy.
00:44:56.320 --> 00:44:59.440
Sorry, I just need uh another minute or two to collect myself.
00:44:59.599 --> 00:45:00.320
Yeah, that's fine.
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:05.039
Um, I'm gonna move everybody over to the intro section as well, just so I can keep track.
00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:16.239
I'm also very excited about my little baseball, about our little baseball girl.
00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:17.119
Yeah.
00:45:17.519 --> 00:45:25.440
I ended up having to do something very different for her because she's not in the same faction, but I'm hoping the thing I I caught I threw together for her will be fine.
00:45:25.679 --> 00:45:26.079
That's fine.
00:45:26.159 --> 00:45:27.519
I'm excited no matter what.
00:45:29.119 --> 00:45:38.159
Uh yeah, Owen's going to uh going to uh head out, and as he steps out of the church, he's going to light a cigarette because you obviously don't smoke in a church, that's just rude.
00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:39.679
Says you.
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:52.480
Um yeah, so uh I guess we have we've all done our intros, so we can actually we should move everyone to act one, I guess.
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:54.559
Uh wait no, these these guys shouldn't be up here.
00:45:54.639 --> 00:45:57.199
They should be down here so I can move them into the the combat.
00:45:57.360 --> 00:45:58.320
One second.
00:45:58.719 --> 00:46:00.480
We have different tokens for the tracker.
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:01.519
I forgot.
00:46:01.840 --> 00:46:02.400
Oh right.
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:04.559
Yes, that's correct.
00:46:05.119 --> 00:46:08.639
So everyone gets to go be in act one now.
00:46:09.119 --> 00:46:27.519
Uh the location the we we the next place we cut to is we get a shot, an exterior shot of a honestly fairly still fairly true to real life, not like weirdly modified version of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:32.159
It's like a very it is just a very large museum building.
00:46:32.320 --> 00:46:40.079
It is kind of like H-shaped, it's uh palatial in construction, it's got lots of palaces out there, or not palaces, excuse me, columns outside.
00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:41.679
It's very ostentatious, yeah.
00:46:41.920 --> 00:46:44.079
Yeah, very ostentatious, very big.
00:46:44.320 --> 00:46:53.039
Uh, but it's like a very normal-looking museum, and the sun has begun to set or is actively setting.
00:46:53.199 --> 00:46:53.920
It's getting dark.
00:46:54.079 --> 00:46:56.639
It's not dark yet, but it's getting dark.
00:46:57.119 --> 00:47:03.119
And I guess what I want to know is you all have your missions.
00:47:03.280 --> 00:47:03.519
Yeah.
00:47:03.760 --> 00:47:13.199
Uh do you want to like do you know, I'll say, uh the museum itself is very conspicuously unguarded.
00:47:14.000 --> 00:47:28.719
This used to be uh a a uh munchkin's like hold like a munchkin's fortress, like a about a month ago, but then all that stuff with the ghosts allegedly happened, and now no one is around anymore.
00:47:29.119 --> 00:47:31.360
Oh, so it's just been totally abandoned.
00:47:31.599 --> 00:47:32.159
It's been totally able to.
00:47:32.320 --> 00:47:33.840
The whole museum has been abandoned.
00:47:34.079 --> 00:47:35.119
The whole museum.
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:44.639
Oh and you you figure you're probably not going to find any, you know, they're Munchkin's opseck's pretty good.
00:47:44.719 --> 00:47:49.920
You're not gonna find any like documents pertaining to whatever they were doing there.
00:47:50.639 --> 00:48:00.480
But like this is the the first time in a while anyone has been able to just actually go through the Boston Museum without being among them.
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:11.599
So I guess the question is like, how are y'all who who's like how are y'all entering and or like where are you going first to like try and fulfill your missions?
00:48:11.679 --> 00:48:12.800
Like, what are y'all up to?
00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:17.360
Sorry, I had a text message.
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:18.880
Um, hmm.
00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:22.480
Trying to see front door.
00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:23.840
Front door.
00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:25.679
That'll be pretty easy.
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:29.360
Owen's not a ninja, he's not a stealth guy.
00:48:30.559 --> 00:48:30.719
Yeah.
00:48:31.119 --> 00:48:32.079
He's a doctor.
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:34.559
Uh so we'll we'll we'll work with Owen first.
00:48:34.639 --> 00:48:41.280
So you like walk in, uh, there's like you come up to a place, you might have been here before in the before times.
00:48:41.440 --> 00:48:46.880
There's like a like a very like a little room, there's like ticketing off to one side, a gift shop.
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:57.840
There's like some stairways up to the rotunda that like takes you to the uh like the other things, like yeah, I mean like wings and stuff like that.
00:48:57.920 --> 00:48:58.159
Yeah.
00:48:58.639 --> 00:49:02.719
Owen did the elementary school field trip to the museum.
00:49:03.599 --> 00:49:04.400
Expensive elementary school.
00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:06.480
Well, I guess they probably get preferential rights.
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:06.800
Yeah.
00:49:07.039 --> 00:49:08.480
On account of educational.
00:49:09.679 --> 00:49:15.199
Um he's gone with friends a few other times, you know, when he was growing up.
00:49:16.239 --> 00:49:19.760
I have too many pages up, and it's making my head spin.
00:49:23.119 --> 00:49:25.360
My GM muscles have gotten so so rusty.
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:26.480
Atrophied.
00:49:26.800 --> 00:49:26.960
Yeah.
00:49:27.119 --> 00:49:28.239
They really have atrophies.
00:49:28.800 --> 00:49:29.440
It's kind of a prong.
00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:32.559
Owen doesn't do ghosts.
00:49:32.719 --> 00:49:35.039
He kind of does the opposite of that.
00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:39.760
Like his job is to make sure there aren't ghosts for as long as possible.
00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:40.480
Mm-hmm.
00:49:40.559 --> 00:49:40.960
Mm-hmm.
00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:48.960
So you come in here and it's definitely eerie.
00:49:49.360 --> 00:50:00.239
There's no lights on, obviously, and no one else is here and haven't been for a couple weeks, but it does still just sort of look like the Boston Museum of Fine Arts in here.
00:50:00.320 --> 00:50:03.280
Like all the exhibits have been left as they are.
00:50:03.679 --> 00:50:17.679
Uh, it seems like maybe the the munchkins who used to occupy this place actually like might have been doing some, you know, like keeping the displays dusted and stuff like that on for volunteer basis, maybe.
00:50:17.920 --> 00:50:27.920
But like things are things are a little dusty in here since no one's been in here, but so far there's no clear sign of an actual haunting.
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:29.519
That could change.
00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:39.039
You have a mission, but you also have a sense that there that that uh people who you don't like could show up at any moment.
00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:44.639
So I guess my question to you is Owen is what is it you want to accomplish, and how are you going to do that?
00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:48.639
Uh Owen already knows the layout of the museum.
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:52.559
I think what Owen wants to accomplish right now.
00:50:57.599 --> 00:50:58.239
Hmm.
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:05.519
Can I say that now what would Owen do?
00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:16.159
Because he didn't get the flyer, so he doesn't know that this this is this is a like an exhibit.
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:18.559
He just knows the sword is somewhere in here.
00:51:20.239 --> 00:51:28.880
And you might like you might like reason if it's a you know uh Asian sword of some kind, that it might be in a specific location.
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:29.280
Yeah.
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:31.599
If if it if if it's just like a thing.
00:51:31.760 --> 00:51:39.840
Uh I will say like like functionally, things that would make sense vis-a-vis like everyone's still at at like spick and span right now.
00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:47.360
The the obvious choices are either A, just try and learn the location of the of the thing and how you're going to do that.
00:51:47.519 --> 00:51:47.840
Yeah.
00:51:48.079 --> 00:52:10.559
Or B, try and learn the location of you know other people who might be showing up, which could be like putting your like kind of setting up like not a sting per se, but realizing that like if it will take you some time to find the sword, that there's a chance that you might not be the only person here in the time that it takes you.
00:52:10.880 --> 00:52:11.440
Right.
00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:13.599
I'm gonna say.
00:52:51.119 --> 00:52:56.559
That like someone is going to show up uh very quickly at this point.
00:52:58.079 --> 00:53:04.960
So he is going to, you know, uh he kind of knows where where the Asian exhibit would be in this museum.
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:07.039
He's gonna kind of make his way there.
00:53:07.840 --> 00:53:09.360
But he's going to.
00:53:09.760 --> 00:53:22.960
Can I say he's going to try to uh get someone to maybe obfuscate uh the layout of the museum to prevent someone else from following him?
00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:25.519
Interesting.
00:53:26.159 --> 00:53:30.559
Um let me check like what would be if there's a good thing.
00:53:30.880 --> 00:53:32.480
Like, would that be an illusion?
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:41.760
Well, I'm mostly just trying to figure out like what kind of if there's a way like I can mechanically represent that.
00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:42.320
Okay.
00:53:45.280 --> 00:53:46.159
Hold on.
00:53:46.320 --> 00:53:47.199
Uh let's see.
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:49.679
I have to look at the actual scene types and things like that.
00:53:49.840 --> 00:53:51.039
Wait, where's my cheat sheet?
00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:52.239
I need my cheat sheet.
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:54.159
I don't have my cheat sheet open.
00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:58.159
That would help significantly because everything I need to know is in the cheat sheet.
00:53:58.480 --> 00:53:59.039
I have an app.
00:53:59.199 --> 00:53:59.679
Do you want it?
00:53:59.920 --> 00:54:00.239
Yes.
00:54:00.800 --> 00:54:02.159
Uh I I found it.
00:54:02.239 --> 00:54:04.079
It's I got it.
00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:04.639
Yes.
00:54:04.719 --> 00:54:04.880
Yes.
00:54:05.039 --> 00:54:05.840
Thank you, though.
00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:07.679
I appreciate it.
00:54:08.719 --> 00:54:10.400
So our drama scenes are battle scenes.
00:54:10.480 --> 00:54:14.559
Well, we're not doing a battle scene because no one can actually do a battle scene yet because no one knows where they are.
00:54:14.880 --> 00:54:16.639
Uh, drama scene.
00:54:16.960 --> 00:54:19.519
So recovery info or emotion.
00:54:19.760 --> 00:54:25.519
Um This could count as learning the location of one of us.
00:54:25.840 --> 00:54:27.280
That would make sense to me.
00:54:27.360 --> 00:54:37.760
Like, if you were doing this as like uh you're doing it defensively, but like you set up your defensive maneuvers such that you do catch someone who's also skulking around, right?
00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:38.960
Okay, yeah, I can do that.
00:54:39.280 --> 00:54:48.079
There's not there's not really a defensive move in that way vis-a-vis like putting a blocker on your information just because like it's not that kind of game.
00:54:49.519 --> 00:54:58.800
Yeah, um, so tell me like what it is you're doing to I mean you've you've said like what your aim is, like how are you doing this, right?
00:54:59.199 --> 00:55:18.559
Uh I think what my what the what Owen would want to do is uh in kind of some of the more like the crucial uh hallways of the museum, like where kind of foot traffic would naturally flow while you're checking out guys are checking out the museums, the exhibits and whatnot.
00:55:18.800 --> 00:55:39.360
Uh he is going to uh have someone under his employ uh kind of uh create a field around those like hallways so that if someone else passes through them, he'll be alerted of their presence.
00:55:39.760 --> 00:55:40.239
Makes sense.
00:55:40.480 --> 00:55:40.639
Okay.
00:55:41.039 --> 00:55:50.159
And it might have some kind of effect of maybe disorienting whoever walks in so that like they kind of lose their sense of direction a bit.
00:55:51.519 --> 00:55:53.280
That makes sense.
00:55:53.840 --> 00:56:04.400
So that sounds to me like since you're principally employing like getting in touch with one of your your ghostly apparitions, it sounds like it's probably summoning.
00:56:04.639 --> 00:56:04.960
Okay.
00:56:07.119 --> 00:56:10.639
And that so that is uh what's the dice roll for that again?
00:56:10.800 --> 00:56:15.199
Uh you're rolling 2d6 and you want to hit five or higher.
00:56:17.840 --> 00:56:19.199
Hell yeah, that's a ten.
00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:20.159
That's a ten.
00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:23.199
Uh a question I should have asked, but I guess I can ask now.
00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:26.400
Uh, who is it that your ghost buddy catches?
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:29.679
Of the three other people it could be.
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:34.320
Uh well, it's gonna only be one of the two because he doesn't know there's a third one around.
00:56:34.800 --> 00:56:36.159
I'm gonna say.
00:56:38.320 --> 00:56:40.880
I'm gonna say he catches Zephyr.
00:56:42.639 --> 00:56:42.960
Okay.
00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:44.400
That makes sense.
00:56:44.719 --> 00:56:51.360
Uh so I I guess while you mark Zephyr's uh uh uh location, yes, uh that you know that.
00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:55.679
Uh A infoshare.
00:56:56.079 --> 00:56:59.119
Because I believe you all have you all have social links with each other, right?
00:56:59.280 --> 00:56:59.760
Yes.
00:57:00.400 --> 00:57:04.480
Uh Chris, you're also going to learn uh this location somehow.
00:57:04.719 --> 00:57:07.039
Uh we'll figure we can figure out how in a second.
00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:20.239
Um Zephyr, what are you up to uh when like what like what where do we find that you are or what you're doing when Owen like gets your location?
00:57:20.559 --> 00:57:22.480
Zephyr is not going in through the front door.
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:24.320
Fair play is not going in through the front door.
00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:28.159
Um and I know what fair play is gonna do on her turn, so I'll probably go next.
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:44.239
Um, but as a result, I think she's come in through one of the skylights, like she just is able to pull off one of the window panels around the skylight and drops into the museum as quiet as possible.
00:57:44.480 --> 00:57:54.239
Um and unfortunately immediately trips whatever uh security trap that Owen has set up.
00:57:54.400 --> 00:58:02.000
Which is funny that you picked fair play, considering she still has the murderous intent emo bond toward Owen.
00:58:02.239 --> 00:58:05.119
Um, so you know, that's fine.
00:58:05.280 --> 00:58:11.840
Um, immediately knows that it was Owen, is just like that motherfucker.
00:58:12.079 --> 00:58:26.000
You see like a shadow on the periphery of your vision, and for a second you think you wonder if that's one of the ghosts that they talked about, and you like glare over as you like cast your gaze over to it, it disappears into the panel gutter.
00:58:26.159 --> 00:58:26.320
Yeah.
00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:36.320
Uh and we get a brief we get a brief cut back to Owen as uh like text appears that like like like panel gutter bleeds in in the shape of tests.
00:58:36.400 --> 00:58:39.920
It's like, hey, someone's here who wants to beat your ass real bad.
00:58:41.039 --> 00:58:45.840
Owen is going to uh to laugh nostalgically.
00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:51.039
She does want to beat my she does want that.
00:58:51.760 --> 00:58:52.400
Yeah.
00:58:53.840 --> 00:58:54.960
Good to go.
00:58:56.239 --> 00:59:04.000
The text uh much smaller, but uh disappearing into the this is like the last panel on the page, so it's kind of like it's fading away into the corner.
00:59:04.159 --> 00:59:06.639
Uh the text just goes, let me know if she's single, okay.
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:07.280
Bye.
00:59:08.719 --> 00:59:10.079
Yeah, that's fair.
00:59:11.440 --> 00:59:29.519
Yeah, the one the one that he set up as a trap is just like kind of this like out of all of the uh ethereal uh Lovecraftian beings that exist beyond the veil, this one's kind of a nerd that he set up as the as the uh the watchman.
00:59:29.760 --> 00:59:31.119
So that tracks.
00:59:31.440 --> 00:59:34.800
Yeah, the six three woman, yeah, that makes sense.
00:59:35.039 --> 00:59:37.440
Yeah, with big with big muscular metal arms.
00:59:37.519 --> 00:59:38.000
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:59:40.000 --> 00:59:42.079
What's that uh Adonis of a woman up to?
00:59:42.239 --> 00:59:42.400
Yeah.
00:59:42.639 --> 00:59:51.039
Yeah, uh that Adonis of a woman knows what she's after, and she um, because last time she fucked around too much, right?
00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:55.039
And it got her it got her ass beat, it got her humiliated.
00:59:55.360 --> 00:59:57.920
She wants to find the location of her prize.
00:59:59.119 --> 01:00:00.000
That makes sense.
01:00:00.079 --> 01:00:01.679
How's she gonna go about this?
01:00:02.000 --> 01:00:21.679
Um you know that there's a the the the your information that you have to work with is that it's some kind of Japanese sword and that it appears to be listed amongst the Japanese art exhibit, but like it's also a weird supernatural thing, sure, maybe, or there's something supernatural involved with it.
01:00:21.920 --> 01:00:22.159
Right.
01:00:22.480 --> 01:00:25.360
So there's you have options for how you go hunting this thing.
01:00:25.760 --> 01:00:33.280
I do have like a straightforward investigation skill just ticked, um, which is probably the best option.
01:00:33.519 --> 01:00:38.239
I think it's a matter of just um knowing that she's been caught.
01:00:38.559 --> 01:00:41.519
Fair play is going to still move as quietly as she can.
01:00:41.679 --> 01:00:44.719
She doesn't have any stealth skills, but don't worry about that.
01:00:45.039 --> 01:00:52.000
Um she's going to move as quietly as she can through the Japanese art exhibit, considering the nature of the sword.
01:00:52.159 --> 01:00:55.199
Um to hunt it down.
01:00:55.360 --> 01:01:00.719
She is looking for this uh Shinkiro Mura uh, right?
01:01:01.199 --> 01:01:01.599
Yeah.
01:01:01.920 --> 01:01:04.559
So we see something real fast.
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:09.920
Again, I don't think I have certain keys on my keyboard are broken still.
01:01:18.639 --> 01:01:24.159
I'm really happy that there's a function in Windows called the on-screen keyboard that you can just click.
01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:25.920
Uh-huh.
01:01:26.159 --> 01:01:26.960
That's an eight.
01:01:27.519 --> 01:01:28.960
An eight, that's successful.
01:01:29.360 --> 01:01:33.519
Uh so I think it's just a matter of literally kind of browsing the museum.
01:01:33.599 --> 01:01:37.519
I think she's kind of enjoying looking through like the Japanese art exhibit.
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:46.960
Um and is just manages to uh if this thing is kind of ethereal in its existence, she just kind of gets lucky.
01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:50.880
And when it exists is when she's in the room, right?
01:01:51.679 --> 01:02:03.840
The thing that you find that you aren't expecting to find, because it is very much not the way these sorts of things are usually displayed, is you don't find it on its own display.
01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:13.360
Uh you come across a display for like, you know, one of the Oyori, like like traditional, like big full Japanese suits of armor, right?
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:14.960
With like the Minpo and all that.
01:02:15.119 --> 01:02:16.639
Uh really scary looking.
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:16.880
Yeah.
01:02:17.039 --> 01:02:24.400
And it almost kind of looks like the blade and scabbard are clutched in its hands.
01:02:24.719 --> 01:02:25.199
Ooh.
01:02:25.599 --> 01:02:30.719
And it's still in like a sitting position, and it's like kind of like it's holding it.
01:02:31.119 --> 01:02:32.880
But that's also weird.
01:02:33.119 --> 01:02:33.360
Right?
01:02:34.639 --> 01:02:36.559
But you do know where it is.
01:02:36.880 --> 01:02:43.920
So is this a matter of sense because it's just the prize, I can basically say I acquire it at this point, right?
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:49.039
Let's say I'm I'm like doing the.
01:02:49.840 --> 01:02:52.159
Because it's not like I can learn its secret or it's Oki.
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:59.280
I feel like with the prize, if I'm remembering right, if it's un what's the word?
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:07.039
If there's nobody looking after it at the moment, it it does kind of by default fall into Zephyr's possession, doesn't it?
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:09.920
Therein lies the problem.
01:03:10.239 --> 01:03:10.559
Interesting.
01:03:11.039 --> 01:03:17.840
Um so, and this is uh because well I know you have your uh reticence thing, uh, and this will come up.
01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:22.239
Uh I forget if you do you have to roll something for reticence as well.
01:03:23.760 --> 01:03:27.760
After you receive information from any source on it, yeah, it is a successful skill check.
01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:34.639
Okay, so do that reticence real quick because we have to find out if uh anyone else learns the location of this as well.
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:35.519
Yes.
01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:42.559
2D six.
01:03:48.400 --> 01:03:49.199
Sorry.
01:03:50.000 --> 01:03:50.880
2D6.
01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:53.760
I'm just gonna copy and paste that so I can get to it easy.
01:03:54.079 --> 01:03:54.400
Damn.
01:03:54.880 --> 01:03:56.159
Oh my failure.
01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:57.039
That's okay.
01:03:57.199 --> 01:04:01.440
I'm not looking to spend any soma beads or anything to re-roll just now.
01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:08.079
It just means that fair play fails to conceal that she has information, right?
01:04:08.639 --> 01:04:17.679
And uh this actually is a pretty easy one, especially because, you know, uh Owen and also somehow Chris, who will get to, both know that you're here.
01:04:17.840 --> 01:04:23.519
Uh, you go to take the sword from the suit of armor, and the suit of armor stands up.
01:04:23.840 --> 01:04:27.599
Ooh, not relinquishing not relinquishing the sword.
01:04:27.920 --> 01:04:31.519
I knew it! Uh do we mark down that we know the location of it?
01:04:31.760 --> 01:04:37.440
Uh yes, because she failed to uh the reticence check failed, so you both learned the location of the sword as well.
01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:46.480
The question is Cut the panel of Owen going well, realizing he knows where the sword is and going, ooh, and then knowing that the armor gets up and goes, oh.
01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:58.559
Like, because you're also in that area, Owen, so you might actually have just seen the thing like in a different or area, like get up and then noticed fair play was also there.
01:04:58.880 --> 01:05:08.719
Yeah, like he's he's like on the other side of like of like the set like the section of where the exhibit is, so like he kind of has has a good awareness of where the whole thing is.
01:05:08.960 --> 01:05:15.840
So he just gotta hear his armor like uh clanking as it stands up, and he just goes, Oh.
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:17.679
Ah, beans.
01:05:18.559 --> 01:05:22.880
Uh Chris, do you want to go or do you want the NPC to go?
01:05:24.639 --> 01:05:30.800
Um let the NPC go.
01:05:31.039 --> 01:05:35.519
Because I think I like I've already had an idea on how this is going to work for Chris.
01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:42.239
Um and I think it'd be funner to have everybody else's like got their ducks in a row before she uh shows up.
01:05:43.360 --> 01:05:44.960
Okay, let me check.
01:05:47.360 --> 01:05:48.320
My thing.
01:05:49.760 --> 01:05:50.880
Oh shit.
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:53.679
Uh well, it's okay.
01:05:54.000 --> 01:05:58.480
Actually, I guess I can just switch these for one second.
01:05:59.199 --> 01:06:02.400
I made a GM storytelling mistake, but don't worry about it.
01:06:02.719 --> 01:06:03.119
That's okay.
01:06:03.280 --> 01:06:04.400
I pretend not to see.
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:10.559
I I'm only it's not relevant to anything that has happened in the in the mission itself, is all I'll say.
01:06:10.719 --> 01:06:15.599
But I can very quickly uh move some things around for it to be corrected.
01:06:16.159 --> 01:06:16.400
Right.
01:06:17.360 --> 01:06:26.159
Um Kazuko Uahara who we described earlier.
01:06:26.719 --> 01:06:35.920
Uh I think when he cut to her, there's like the the squeak of her her baseball cleats on like the nice tile floor as uh she's skulking around.
01:06:36.239 --> 01:06:43.119
Uh she has a pretty she does not know anyone else is here yet because she doesn't have the emobond sense.
01:06:43.199 --> 01:06:51.760
She hasn't been she is not friends with anyone, but she's like clearly looking around, trying to find a ghost.
01:06:52.320 --> 01:07:04.800
And because it's like she doesn't know your locations are that I mean I guess she would know that fair play is here if there's a commotion and she happens to be looking around in the area.
01:07:05.039 --> 01:07:05.679
Right.
01:07:06.320 --> 01:07:07.519
So I guess we could say that.
01:07:07.679 --> 01:07:15.360
I'm deciding whether she's going to just also be like, I'm gonna try to learn location a thing, or if she's going to try and make an emo bond.
01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:18.719
Like, or learn someone sort of learn another player's location.
01:07:18.880 --> 01:07:21.840
I guess that would make sense to learn another player's location.
01:07:22.400 --> 01:07:27.360
Um so she's going to try and learn Fair Play's location.
01:07:27.519 --> 01:07:43.280
Because she doesn't because she doesn't know it, because she doesn't know you, but also like she heard a because this is the motivation here, is that like she uh you know like you know she hears the commotion and she wants to know the source of it.
01:07:43.360 --> 01:07:43.840
Yeah, exactly.
01:07:44.079 --> 01:07:50.320
Yeah, she hears the commotion and she's going to This is a stretch, but it's fine.
01:07:50.480 --> 01:08:00.000
Uh she's going to try and uh learn your location and the source of this commotion uh by jumping in fucking swinging from the the like the priority.
01:08:01.199 --> 01:08:06.320
Like just trying to pick, like she's expecting to be here alone and there to maybe be some ghosts.
01:08:06.880 --> 01:08:13.119
So either you're a ghost and she's gonna try to beat you up, or you're not a ghost and she's gonna try and beat you up.
01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:14.559
That makes sense, yeah.
01:08:15.360 --> 01:08:18.079
So she's gonna try to learn your location with blades.
01:08:20.000 --> 01:08:20.319
Okay.
01:08:21.600 --> 01:08:23.680
I wasn't aware you could do that.
01:08:24.399 --> 01:08:28.720
All you have to be able to do is make the action make sense with what you want to roll.
01:08:28.880 --> 01:08:29.439
Yeah, exactly.
01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:30.239
I see.
01:08:32.079 --> 01:08:33.199
So we'll say she doesn't.
01:08:33.359 --> 01:08:34.800
I've been thinking about this all wrong then.
01:08:35.039 --> 01:08:37.199
You'd be yeah, you have to you have to work backwards.
01:08:37.279 --> 01:08:41.279
You have to be like, I want to use this skill that I have checked.
01:08:41.439 --> 01:08:43.920
So how do I how do I make that work, right?
01:08:44.000 --> 01:08:46.239
Like you gotta work backwards from it, you know?
01:08:46.399 --> 01:08:47.920
So oh, and you learn it.
01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:48.319
Good job.
01:08:48.560 --> 01:08:49.520
You roll an eight.
01:08:49.840 --> 01:09:09.119
So uh as you uh are are like squaring up with this suddenly standing samurai armor, uh, from your uh like right, you barely manage to dodge this stranger coming in with a baseball bat and just swinging at you.
01:09:09.279 --> 01:09:09.680
Yeah.
01:09:10.000 --> 01:09:26.399
But like you have the sense as she like comes to a stop and turns to face you, and you break eye contact with the standing samurai armor to figure out who the fuck just attacked you and see this kind of sporty-looking teenager.
01:09:26.640 --> 01:09:26.880
Right.
01:09:27.039 --> 01:09:36.159
Uh she locks eyes with you, and you sense that you it is like the the aggro bond of two people who are about to have a duel.
01:09:36.399 --> 01:09:37.439
Yeah, of course.
01:09:37.600 --> 01:09:41.439
Um, you have been invaded by a black spirit from Dark Souls, basically.
01:09:41.760 --> 01:09:42.720
Dark Souls, totally.
01:09:42.800 --> 01:09:43.039
No.
01:09:43.119 --> 01:09:56.239
Uh Fairplay just kind of looks between her and the armor and then back at her and is uh you know, kid, I think the school, the museum is closed for uh for tours right now.
01:09:56.319 --> 01:09:56.960
It's a little late.
01:09:57.119 --> 01:09:58.399
Past your bedtime, right?
01:09:58.479 --> 01:09:59.760
What are you doing here?
01:10:00.720 --> 01:10:03.760
Uh, how is how is this brat gonna respond?
01:10:04.319 --> 01:10:07.119
Uh fuck, hold on.
01:10:07.279 --> 01:10:22.159
I have to I have to get I I'm trying to get into the into uh into the headspace of uh Braddy's sports teen, and I did just get distracted by looking at the character sheet and realizing that whoever made this fucking terrible Google Sheets Shinobi Gami sheet misspelled the word category.
01:10:22.479 --> 01:10:23.119
What?
01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:26.720
In the skill matrix thing above the skill matrix?
01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:27.600
They did.
01:10:28.159 --> 01:10:29.199
They did cat up.
01:10:30.399 --> 01:10:31.840
This sheet sucks ass.
01:10:32.399 --> 01:10:36.560
So someone else needs to make a shinobigami Google sheet, please.
01:10:37.039 --> 01:10:38.800
This sheet's really bad.
01:10:39.119 --> 01:10:42.399
Um God, she says, like.
01:10:55.199 --> 01:10:57.439
You haven't been a Braddy Teen in a long time.
01:10:57.600 --> 01:10:58.000
I understand.
01:10:58.319 --> 01:11:00.239
I'm only a Braddy teen in other games.
01:11:00.399 --> 01:11:00.800
That's right.
01:11:00.960 --> 01:11:01.920
Channel one of them.
01:11:02.560 --> 01:11:05.840
It's hard to be it's hard to be a bratty teen and a GM.
01:11:06.079 --> 01:11:09.359
Just say a TF2 scout line in a girly voice.
01:11:09.600 --> 01:11:10.239
That's true.
01:11:11.199 --> 01:11:13.359
I don't know any of those off the top of my head.
01:11:13.680 --> 01:11:15.279
I I got GM stress.
01:11:15.359 --> 01:11:16.399
I I I ain't fucking with that.
01:11:16.560 --> 01:11:18.000
Hey, nice knucklehead.
01:11:20.079 --> 01:11:24.960
She's just like, I don't know who you are, but I'm putting your old ass in the ground.
01:11:25.279 --> 01:11:25.680
Old?
01:11:26.399 --> 01:11:27.199
You heard me.
01:11:27.439 --> 01:11:29.520
Oh god, that's another child.
01:11:29.680 --> 01:11:31.279
I see how it is.
01:11:33.279 --> 01:11:38.319
And she's she has locked into uh uh trying to fucking get you stance.
01:11:38.640 --> 01:11:39.039
I see.
01:11:39.199 --> 01:11:40.880
Well, I know how the next round's gonna go.
01:11:40.960 --> 01:11:41.439
That's fair.
01:11:41.600 --> 01:11:42.159
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:11:42.960 --> 01:11:46.399
Uh and last but not least, Chris.
01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:48.399
Chris, what you up to?
01:11:48.720 --> 01:11:54.319
So Chris was going to do the same thing of coming in through the skylight.
01:11:54.960 --> 01:11:59.359
Uh got up there and saw Hardball jumping down already.
01:11:59.680 --> 01:12:36.079
So um decided to uh not necessarily come in the exact same way, um, but took note of where she was heading, and uh rather than like instead of like heading her off so much like I guess the answer would be more like she kind of stalked her by using her uh extremely bizarre little uh uh prehensile hair to just kind of swing along the sides of the building, like literally just crawling like a like a spider across the the the windows.
01:12:36.479 --> 01:12:37.119
Great.
01:12:37.520 --> 01:12:51.920
Um and then started seeing uh sung and now uh hardball and a moving suit of armor uh all convened in the same room and went, ah, I guess this is where I need to be.
01:12:52.159 --> 01:13:41.760
Um and uh I think the way this is going to work is I think Chris is going to just crack open one of the windows, let her scrawny self in, and uh rather than join the fray um with um with uh hardball and um uh and fair play, I think she is going to uh jump down on top of the suit of armor and go, this looks you this looks like something everybody else is looking for.
01:13:42.159 --> 01:13:45.279
Uh and starts uh like just kind of beating up the helmet.
01:13:45.920 --> 01:13:50.720
So you're also trying to learn the location of the the prize, basically.
01:13:51.359 --> 01:13:53.680
Effectively, yeah, I think that's basically what's going on.
01:13:54.079 --> 01:13:54.640
You should know it already.
01:13:54.800 --> 01:13:55.439
Yeah, you already know it.
01:13:55.680 --> 01:13:56.000
Oh, okay.
01:13:56.239 --> 01:13:56.640
Yeah, that's true.
01:13:57.039 --> 01:14:01.039
Oh, that's true, then you can just instigate you can just instigate combat.
01:14:01.680 --> 01:14:02.159
Yeah.
01:14:02.399 --> 01:14:11.520
So she's just like I'm uh she just sees that everybody is very interested in fighting uh something that is moving, and it's just like, alright, what's uh what's going on here?
01:14:11.840 --> 01:14:24.479
So since you have uh Zephyr's location, well this will be in it sounds like you are starting a combat scene with Zephyr, and we should figure out who else is going to be involved in that.
01:14:29.680 --> 01:14:36.720
I think it's more like it's more like since she noticed Zephyr.
01:14:38.079 --> 01:14:48.720
I guess she is basically fighting uh uh Zephyr, but uh the the I guess the more interesting wrinkle was her just going like, why are you why are you beating up a suit of armor?
01:14:48.960 --> 01:14:53.840
Well, it's like you don't necessarily have to fight Zephyr, but you are starting a combat scene that Zephyr is also in.
01:14:54.079 --> 01:14:54.960
Yeah, I guess that makes sense.
01:14:55.199 --> 01:14:58.720
Because this is this is your mechanical hook for actually engaging the combat scene.
01:14:59.600 --> 01:15:08.960
You gotta remember there's only like a handful of mechan like like there's you can flavor it in all kinds of different ways, but mechanically there's only a handful of things you can do during the drama phase, right?
01:15:09.199 --> 01:15:09.279
Right.
01:15:10.000 --> 01:15:17.520
This this samurai armor is not a I I'm playing a little fast and loose with the Shinobigami things in reboot tradition.
01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:19.840
It's not a character in the same sense, right?
01:15:20.079 --> 01:15:21.439
Okay, which we'll get to.
01:15:22.079 --> 01:15:22.239
Okay.
01:15:23.119 --> 01:15:26.720
So, uh setting combat scene, let me double check to see what the rules are.
01:15:26.800 --> 01:15:38.560
Because I know like people with emo bonds can just incur themselves into a combat scene, but I want to see if there is other rules for determining who is in it or if it's just whoever would make sense to be in it.
01:15:38.880 --> 01:15:39.439
Right.
01:15:39.920 --> 01:15:43.840
Okay, initiate combat scene player must choose a single player character whose location they know.
01:15:43.920 --> 01:15:44.640
We've been over that.
01:15:45.199 --> 01:15:46.640
Engage target in a combat scene.
01:15:46.720 --> 01:15:51.520
At this time, any characters with an emo bond towards either character in combat may use incursion to join the battle.
01:15:51.680 --> 01:15:53.600
Oh, so it has to be an emo bond.
01:15:53.840 --> 01:15:54.319
Interesting.
01:15:54.720 --> 01:16:01.520
So our new girl this actually locks out our new girl, which is Which I already know exactly how that would go, so that's fine.
01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:02.800
Okay, great.
01:16:03.039 --> 01:16:07.279
Um, Owen, are you trying to get involved with this fight at all?
01:16:08.560 --> 01:16:21.439
Uh man, the smart move would be to let these pe these jokers take themselves out.
01:16:24.000 --> 01:16:25.039
It's definitely possible.
01:16:25.279 --> 01:16:27.039
It's absolutely possible.
01:16:29.600 --> 01:16:30.960
You can sit out if you want to.
01:16:31.199 --> 01:16:43.039
I think I think for for at least the first round, I think Owen is just going to kind of uh let them tire each other out.
01:16:43.359 --> 01:16:43.920
Sure.
01:16:45.520 --> 01:16:45.840
Okay.
01:16:46.720 --> 01:16:55.520
Uh so it sounds like our participating parties are Chris, fair play, and well, I'll bring the NPC token down here.
01:16:55.600 --> 01:17:01.760
This is not going to be like a real participant, but I'll I'll need this uh so it can be there.
01:17:02.000 --> 01:17:03.600
Uh so let's see.
01:17:04.239 --> 01:17:07.199
What is the battlefield for this fight?
01:17:07.439 --> 01:17:09.680
I feel like it's it's congestion.
01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:13.920
Not there's a ton of people, but you're in like a museum exhibit, right?
01:17:14.159 --> 01:17:16.000
Yeah, like a crammed location.
01:17:16.319 --> 01:17:20.079
Yeah, it's not laid out to like support a fight.
01:17:20.239 --> 01:17:22.800
There's lots of stuff around for you to crash into.
01:17:23.199 --> 01:17:23.279
Right.
01:17:23.520 --> 01:17:23.920
Yes.
01:17:24.479 --> 01:17:25.520
It's very awkward.
01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:28.159
There's not like this it's it's very awkward for this purpose.
01:17:28.239 --> 01:17:29.760
So we'll say this is congestion.
01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:30.239
Okay.
01:17:30.800 --> 01:17:37.359
Um so I do want to say, in order to not involve our new girl, right?
01:17:37.600 --> 01:17:41.520
Because I know exactly how this is gonna go, because she doesn't have an embow bond yet.
01:17:41.760 --> 01:17:48.960
Um, this idea that this new girl, Oehara, she squares up like she's also going to fight this suit of armor.
01:17:49.199 --> 01:17:56.640
And um I think fair play just kind of grabs her and tosses her down a hallway, right?
01:17:56.720 --> 01:17:59.359
Like while she's like, ooh, I'm gonna fight this armor, right?
01:17:59.520 --> 01:18:04.399
Yeah, she's like jumping in and you just grab her by the scruff of the neck and chuck her.
01:18:04.560 --> 01:18:05.359
Yeah, exactly.
01:18:05.680 --> 01:18:06.479
Not important.
01:18:07.199 --> 01:18:14.720
Uh I will say, uh, despite the fact that she's got like like protective baseball gear and shit on, she's a lot lighter than you thought she would be.
01:18:14.800 --> 01:18:15.840
It's kind of weird.
01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:17.199
Oh interesting.
01:18:17.520 --> 01:18:25.760
It feels a little like like you just threw like an empty cloth sack and it but it still like traveled like you were throwing a solid object.
01:18:26.399 --> 01:18:26.800
Yeah, totally.
01:18:26.960 --> 01:18:27.119
Yeah.
01:18:27.279 --> 01:18:27.439
Okay.
01:18:28.000 --> 01:18:29.600
Uh maybe you're just that strong.
01:18:29.840 --> 01:18:30.239
Maybe.
01:18:30.319 --> 01:18:33.199
I do have metal arms, so anything is possible.
01:18:33.520 --> 01:18:34.479
That's true.
01:18:34.800 --> 01:18:35.279
Alright.
01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:38.399
Has everybody picked the place they want to start in combat?
01:18:38.560 --> 01:18:38.720
Yes.
01:18:40.000 --> 01:18:40.479
Yes.
01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:41.039
Okay.
01:18:41.119 --> 01:18:44.000
Uh let me move these two up here just so they're a little off.
01:18:44.239 --> 01:18:47.600
On three, one, two, three.
01:18:48.479 --> 01:18:50.000
And I'm rolling a 1d6.
01:18:50.399 --> 01:18:51.600
Oh, interesting.
01:18:51.920 --> 01:18:56.319
So, uh, that is going to put Sarah.
01:18:56.560 --> 01:18:58.399
That's going to put fair play on five.
01:18:58.640 --> 01:19:00.399
It's going to put Chris on four.
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:04.239
And the samurai armor is on one.
01:19:05.680 --> 01:19:06.159
Ooh.
01:19:06.479 --> 01:19:07.920
Very interesting.
01:19:08.479 --> 01:19:15.840
So at the beginning of combat, you guys square up, and the samurai armor seems to kind of like take a defensive posture and like backs away.
01:19:15.920 --> 01:19:19.279
Like it jumps away from you, which is very uncanny.
01:19:19.520 --> 01:19:23.600
There's very obviously, like, you can see there's very obviously nothing in the suit.
01:19:23.680 --> 01:19:23.840
Yeah.
01:19:24.079 --> 01:19:25.439
It's just moving.
01:19:25.840 --> 01:19:28.319
Which is uh disconcerting.
01:19:28.560 --> 01:19:28.880
Yeah.
01:19:29.039 --> 01:19:29.359
Yeah.
01:19:29.920 --> 01:19:37.359
So I assume if I manage to land damage on the samurai armor, that I get to acquire the prize, right?
01:19:37.840 --> 01:19:39.840
It's reasonable to treat it that way, yes.
01:19:40.079 --> 01:19:44.479
Uh, this is also uh, because again, this is not a finale mission, this is a normal mission.
01:19:44.640 --> 01:19:44.720
Yes.
01:19:44.960 --> 01:19:51.760
The way it works is that the round count is limited to the number of PCs of characters involved in the fight.
01:19:52.239 --> 01:19:56.640
We'll say that could be two or three rounds.
01:19:56.720 --> 01:19:58.079
I kind of want to say two.
01:19:58.640 --> 01:20:00.560
Because the NPC doesn't really count.
01:20:00.800 --> 01:20:02.319
Yeah, the NPC is not really a character.
01:20:02.640 --> 01:20:02.880
That's fair.
01:20:03.039 --> 01:20:03.359
Yeah, it works.
01:20:03.520 --> 01:20:07.199
Um, and then also the instant you take any damage, you're knocked out of the fight.
01:20:07.279 --> 01:20:09.119
Like, you just have to like run away.
01:20:09.359 --> 01:20:22.000
Um The other thing is that the NPC, even though they're here as a character, they do not have like it basically there's two ways you can deal with the NPC.
01:20:22.319 --> 01:20:28.560
Either you can use your turn to do try and do like what you think would be like an RP action to disable it.
01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:32.399
Uh, this being some kind of weird ghost armor.
01:20:33.600 --> 01:20:38.000
Or you can just hit it with any damage and that will also uh disable it.
01:20:38.560 --> 01:20:39.520
Interesting.
01:20:39.760 --> 01:20:40.079
Okay.
01:20:41.840 --> 01:20:42.159
Okay.
01:20:42.560 --> 01:20:43.359
Good to know.
01:20:43.520 --> 01:20:44.079
Hmm.
01:20:44.399 --> 01:20:44.720
Damn.
01:20:45.039 --> 01:20:46.159
So with that actions.
01:20:46.319 --> 01:20:46.479
Yeah.
01:20:46.800 --> 01:20:48.640
Uh yeah, you are up first.
01:20:49.680 --> 01:20:50.000
Okay.
01:20:50.479 --> 01:20:52.960
The NPC, however, is very far away.
01:20:53.279 --> 01:20:54.479
That is the problem.
01:20:55.119 --> 01:21:04.319
Um, and all both uh my my damage, I can't really do damage to it right now, but I can like do some sort of RP action, right?
01:21:04.960 --> 01:21:05.600
Yeah.
01:21:09.359 --> 01:21:09.680
Okay.
01:21:10.000 --> 01:21:16.319
Something that you think would be a good way to deal with an animated ghost armor or uh samurai ghost armor.
01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:17.119
That works.
01:21:17.279 --> 01:21:18.880
Okay, that actually works really well.
01:21:19.039 --> 01:21:21.119
Um, I think that this is going to be fair play.
01:21:21.279 --> 01:21:25.680
Fair play looks at Chris kind of hesitatingly, right?
01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:33.600
Like realizing this is this is her chance to potentially take out one of her rivals in this situation.
01:21:33.840 --> 01:21:39.520
But uh Fairplay is also a consummate professional, and she is much more focused on acquiring the prize.
01:21:39.840 --> 01:21:45.840
So she's gonna look briefly at Chris and then just go, I don't have time for you.
01:21:46.079 --> 01:21:47.920
And um Chris just waves.
01:21:48.000 --> 01:21:48.399
Yeah, of course.
01:21:48.800 --> 01:21:49.439
How cold.
01:21:49.600 --> 01:21:50.159
How cold.
01:21:50.399 --> 01:21:51.680
Aren't you friends?
01:21:51.920 --> 01:21:55.520
Uh no, I mean, technic, technically, but you know.
01:21:55.840 --> 01:21:58.239
Hold on, what's what's your what's your opinion towards Chris?
01:21:58.560 --> 01:21:59.119
Admiration.
01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:00.960
You admire Chris.
01:22:01.279 --> 01:22:03.279
Are you really gonna brush her off like that?
01:22:03.439 --> 01:22:04.319
No, you're right.
01:22:04.399 --> 01:22:05.920
That's actually a really good point.
01:22:06.159 --> 01:22:09.359
I think it's not like a I have I don't have time for you.
01:22:09.520 --> 01:22:18.079
I think it's more of a she looks at Chris and says, I would love to play with you right now, but I'm on the clock.
01:22:18.319 --> 01:22:19.600
Um that's better.
01:22:19.760 --> 01:22:20.880
That's better, yeah.
01:22:21.119 --> 01:22:30.399
And um, I am going to, if this is a matter of using an RP action to disable this armor and get my prize.
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:34.319
Yeah, we'll call this a normal, like any kind of skill check, whatever you think would be appropriate.
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:37.119
Or like whatever action, and I'll tell you what skill, like usual.
01:22:37.439 --> 01:22:38.960
I think this is an old piece of armor.
01:22:39.039 --> 01:22:40.399
I already know how I want to color this.
01:22:40.479 --> 01:22:41.760
This is an old piece of armor.
01:22:41.920 --> 01:22:44.800
Um, I'm going to use pyromancy for this.
01:22:44.880 --> 01:22:47.439
I picked up a new skill since the last time we talked, kids.
01:22:47.600 --> 01:22:48.000
Whoa.
01:22:48.399 --> 01:22:55.119
Um and I'm going to use pyromancy because this idea that this is old samurai armor, right?
01:22:55.279 --> 01:22:58.640
It is flaking as it kind of skitters away from us.
01:22:58.800 --> 01:22:58.880
Oh.
01:22:59.199 --> 01:22:59.439
Yeah.
01:23:00.000 --> 01:23:09.279
Um, so uh fair play is going to do what she always does and create like a kind of thermite reaction with her arms.
01:23:09.600 --> 01:23:20.800
And um she's going to light up the little the trail of uh because like the old samurai armor isn't actually made out of metal, it's made out of like other like treated wood and stuff.
01:23:21.119 --> 01:23:22.800
Treated wood, leather, things like that.
01:23:22.880 --> 01:23:27.119
Um lacquer, a lot of flammable shit.
01:23:27.279 --> 01:23:30.239
Um and like gold leaf that's constantly coming up.
01:23:30.479 --> 01:23:36.239
Yeah, so she's gonna light that trail up and have it uh kind of Looney Tunes follow after this armor, right?
01:23:36.640 --> 01:23:37.119
Great.
01:23:37.359 --> 01:23:38.000
Yeah.
01:23:38.399 --> 01:23:40.479
Uh boo-boo, world 2d6.
01:23:40.720 --> 01:23:41.439
That's a nine.
01:23:41.520 --> 01:23:42.800
Oh that's a nine.
01:23:43.199 --> 01:23:43.359
Yeah.
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:54.239
Uh you light a fire and it does exactly that, like following the trail of like like like l like chipping paint and things of that nature.
01:23:54.319 --> 01:24:00.399
Uh the fire like dances towards it, and the entire thing comes alight almost instantly.
01:24:00.560 --> 01:24:00.720
Right.
01:24:01.039 --> 01:24:22.560
And uh flails around as though there were a person inside burning before the smoldering pieces all kind of fall to the ground, all kind of fall to the ground in a pile, uh, leaving the uh sword uh mercifully untouched uh as it clatters to the ground, uh still inside of its sheath.
01:24:22.720 --> 01:24:22.960
Cool.
01:24:23.119 --> 01:24:30.399
Uh and this uh priceless artifact heirloom armor from uh God knows how many hundreds of years in the past has been thoroughly destroyed.
01:24:30.640 --> 01:24:32.000
Wow, that was quick.
01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:33.840
Yeah, it's old.
01:24:34.079 --> 01:24:35.840
Old shit burn easy.
01:24:36.159 --> 01:24:37.119
It's just a ghost.
01:24:37.680 --> 01:24:40.560
So we'll uh move this NPC token back up.
01:24:40.880 --> 01:24:53.279
So currently, uh fair play, you have dealt with this ghost, and currently, if the thing were to if the scene were to end right now, you would be in control of the sword.
01:24:53.439 --> 01:24:55.279
However, Chris, it's your turn.
01:24:55.359 --> 01:24:56.640
What are you doing?
01:24:57.279 --> 01:25:03.520
Um fair play probably you probably like like like it it probably bounces towards you.
01:25:03.600 --> 01:25:04.399
Like you're able to just get the bigger thing.
01:25:04.720 --> 01:25:10.479
Fair play is making the move for the sword, as Chris is given the ball for what she would like to do.
01:25:10.880 --> 01:25:11.520
Yeah.
01:25:12.960 --> 01:25:17.199
Fair play is is currently not paying a significant amount of attention to you.
01:25:17.760 --> 01:25:18.159
Alright.
01:25:18.640 --> 01:25:34.319
I think um I think Chris's immediate instinct is mostly to just kind of like follow along beside her with her itty bitty little legs, like like shuffling like like Mr.
01:25:34.399 --> 01:25:36.159
Krab style to keep up with.
01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:43.439
Um and it's just like hey, so is that the first one that started moving around or were there others?
01:25:43.600 --> 01:25:47.840
Because I'm I'm also on the clock for like an extermination thing.
01:25:48.960 --> 01:25:51.600
This is the first one I've seen.
01:25:52.000 --> 01:25:52.319
Okay.
01:25:53.359 --> 01:26:00.399
There's m well I don't think there could be more.
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:01.840
I don't know.
01:26:03.359 --> 01:26:11.920
The thing is, is my my my my mission my uh my uh my my job said like like poltergeist plural.
01:26:16.399 --> 01:26:18.319
Are you just telling that to fair play?
01:26:18.560 --> 01:26:23.439
Yeah, I think fair play even kind of squints at her, like are we gonna fight?
01:26:23.680 --> 01:26:25.680
Are are you gonna make a problem with this right now?
01:26:25.840 --> 01:26:26.800
Because like I'm willing to.
01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:30.560
Do you do you wanna I mean like do we I I don't I don't know.
01:26:30.640 --> 01:26:36.720
I just I just thought like I I think we got off on the wrong foot, you know.
01:26:37.279 --> 01:26:41.680
Yeah, I uh I that keeps happen happening to me lately.
01:26:42.079 --> 01:26:42.720
Yeah.
01:26:43.439 --> 01:27:05.840
I figured, you know, maybe we maybe we talked it out, uh, not not, you know, got listen I don't want to wake up like with my face on the ground not knowing uh what the hell happened and everybody else is going off and and drinking without me because I didn't get invited to a party or whatever.
01:27:06.560 --> 01:27:09.920
So, you know, just that don't have anything to do with me right now.
01:27:10.159 --> 01:27:10.720
I see.
01:27:10.960 --> 01:27:12.239
Well, okay.
01:27:16.560 --> 01:27:18.560
Fairplay doesn't know how to deal with this one.
01:27:18.720 --> 01:27:19.600
You know what I mean?
01:27:20.399 --> 01:27:21.439
Chris is a convention.
01:27:21.680 --> 01:27:27.920
Chris, are you trying are you going to try to hurt this woman or are you just let me just attack me or are you gonna let me just walk away with this sword?
01:27:28.000 --> 01:27:30.239
I think that's even what Fairplay says out loud.
01:27:30.479 --> 01:27:33.840
Like, are we fighting or can I just take this thing and go?
01:27:34.000 --> 01:27:36.159
I don't know what's up with the ghosts.
01:27:36.720 --> 01:27:38.000
Oh, did you want this thing?
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:41.680
And Chris is just like like pointing at that, like Yeah, the sword.
01:27:42.239 --> 01:27:42.800
I don't know.
01:27:45.039 --> 01:27:46.000
Oh, you want that?
01:27:50.399 --> 01:27:50.960
Yeah.
01:27:51.680 --> 01:27:52.960
I would like it.
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:53.840
Yeah.
01:27:54.800 --> 01:27:59.600
I think Chris goes for it because she's like, I see a brush, I see uh I I see some I see.
01:28:00.159 --> 01:28:01.680
Going to incentivize her to help me.
01:28:01.920 --> 01:28:03.279
God damn it!
01:28:03.920 --> 01:28:05.520
Great, so what are you gonna do, Chris?
01:28:05.680 --> 01:28:08.319
I think Chris is going to try and steal that fucking sword.
01:28:08.880 --> 01:28:18.000
You see Owen, like as the two of them are talking, like he kind of lunges to like intercept, but then realizes that Chris is going to start a fight and then backs away again.
01:28:18.239 --> 01:28:19.840
So Chris, the best way to do this.
01:28:20.159 --> 01:28:21.119
I'll let this play out.
01:28:21.279 --> 01:28:30.720
Yeah, the best way for you to do this, Chris, would to make do some kind of combat damage to uh fair play and force her to drop out of the combat.
01:28:31.039 --> 01:28:31.680
I see.
01:28:32.079 --> 01:28:43.840
Um I think that the fastest way to do that is to um just go for um uh uh basically a sucker punch.
01:28:44.000 --> 01:28:48.560
Just a close combat as soon as this becomes very obvious that they're gonna be a fight.
01:28:48.720 --> 01:28:49.439
Yeah, let me see.
01:28:49.680 --> 01:28:50.000
Great.
01:28:50.079 --> 01:28:53.359
Uh so go ahead and roll your close combat skill.
01:28:53.680 --> 01:28:54.479
Hooray!
01:28:55.039 --> 01:28:59.840
Uh you have that one, so you're gonna be rolling a 2d6 and trying to clear a five.
01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:00.560
Okay.
01:29:02.319 --> 01:29:03.359
And you do.
01:29:03.760 --> 01:29:06.880
Can I what's up?
01:29:10.319 --> 01:29:11.600
Sorry, I'm thinking.
01:29:13.359 --> 01:29:14.560
I'm I'm listening.
01:29:14.720 --> 01:29:15.840
I'm thinking.
01:29:16.399 --> 01:29:20.079
Uh I am going to.
01:29:23.359 --> 01:29:26.399
I really don't want to lose the prize, is a thing, guys.
01:29:26.640 --> 01:29:33.359
Um I'm going to spend a prayer seal.
01:29:34.000 --> 01:29:35.279
Oh, okay.
01:29:35.600 --> 01:29:38.000
Uh for the audience at home, can you remind us what that does?
01:29:38.319 --> 01:29:43.600
Means uh that I have to for I can force Chris to re-roll that damage.
01:29:44.239 --> 01:29:48.640
I mean it might go badly in my in for me, but I still would like to make the attempt.
01:29:48.720 --> 01:29:48.880
Yeah.
01:29:49.119 --> 01:29:49.199
Yeah.
01:29:49.359 --> 01:29:54.560
Well there are there are lower more lower numbers than higher numbers on that roll, so odds are in your face.
01:29:54.720 --> 01:29:55.680
So just a 2d6 again?
01:29:55.760 --> 01:29:55.840
Yes.
01:29:56.000 --> 01:29:57.680
Yep, 2d6, you're still trying to beat a fire.
01:29:57.920 --> 01:29:59.359
Hey! Bingo!
01:29:59.840 --> 01:30:00.000
Okay.
01:30:00.399 --> 01:30:09.760
Bingo! Uh Chris, you go for the sucker punch and fair, but unfortunately the problem is sucker punches work best when the other person isn't expecting you to attack them.
01:30:10.800 --> 01:30:16.880
Uh and and fair play is actually fairly easy, uh, easily able to step back out of the way of the sucker punch.
01:30:17.119 --> 01:30:18.319
18 tensile arms.
01:30:18.560 --> 01:30:19.920
Listen, her name's Fairplay.
01:30:20.000 --> 01:30:21.840
I I kind of have to go on an even battleground.
01:30:22.319 --> 01:30:22.800
Does that make sense?
01:30:23.279 --> 01:30:26.479
The sucker punch works best when the person you're targeting is a sucker.
01:30:26.880 --> 01:30:27.279
Right.
01:30:27.520 --> 01:30:27.680
Yeah.
01:30:27.920 --> 01:30:30.239
And fair play is extremely on her guard right now.
01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:30.720
Yeah.
01:30:30.960 --> 01:30:31.359
Mm-hmm.
01:30:32.640 --> 01:30:34.880
So, second round of combat.
01:30:35.039 --> 01:30:40.000
Do we want to con do it are are you both continuing to stick with this?
01:30:42.159 --> 01:30:45.359
Are you continuing to stick with this, Oates?
01:30:46.720 --> 01:30:47.840
I'm smiling.
01:30:48.000 --> 01:30:49.119
I don't know what that means.
01:30:49.520 --> 01:30:50.239
Are you gonna let me know?
01:30:50.399 --> 01:30:53.520
Basically, are you gonna let me walk away with this sword?
01:30:53.920 --> 01:31:04.000
Like, if you want to, you can go, actually, Chris doesn't want to fight anymore and not bow in and then just fair play would keep it by default, but you do get one more round if you still want to try and take it from her.
01:31:04.239 --> 01:31:04.399
Right.
01:31:04.640 --> 01:31:05.279
I see.
01:31:05.600 --> 01:31:11.439
Um, no, I think I think Chris is just like, ooh, if it's that important, I d no, no, no.
01:31:11.600 --> 01:31:12.800
I saw what you did to the other one.
01:31:13.039 --> 01:31:15.840
You're willing you're willing to destroy a lot of priceless shit for that.
01:31:16.079 --> 01:31:16.720
That's right.
01:31:16.960 --> 01:31:19.119
I don't want to lose my pants.
01:31:19.600 --> 01:31:20.239
Yeah, like that.
01:31:21.199 --> 01:31:23.119
You don't want that smoke, literally.
01:31:23.439 --> 01:31:26.000
I I quite literally don't want this smoke.
01:31:26.079 --> 01:31:26.960
Uh, yeah, no.
01:31:27.199 --> 01:31:33.439
Fair play kind of squints at this little short stack that she does not trust, even if she does admire.
01:31:33.600 --> 01:31:36.800
I think she admires Chris's gumption, right?
01:31:37.039 --> 01:31:37.760
She admires Chris.
01:31:38.560 --> 01:31:44.800
How much violence is contained in so small a tiny what a small body, and yet such anger, right?
01:31:45.039 --> 01:31:48.960
There's such there there's such a there's such a cunning there that's very difficult to read.
01:31:49.439 --> 01:31:51.840
Yeah, nearly impossible to anticipate.
01:31:51.920 --> 01:31:53.520
That's that kind of character.
01:31:53.760 --> 01:31:57.760
Um yeah, no, I think Chris will let her go.
01:31:57.920 --> 01:32:02.079
She's going to grab up the sword, tie it onto her belt, right?
01:32:03.199 --> 01:32:14.720
And uh give Chris one last suspicious sort of squint before disappearing into the the darkness of the museum, I think.
01:32:17.279 --> 01:32:17.920
Great.
01:32:18.399 --> 01:32:25.359
Well, that ends combat, and that means that now the prize, the Shinkiro Masamune, is in fair play's possession.
01:32:25.680 --> 01:32:26.640
That's right, baby.
01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:27.039
Okay.
01:32:27.600 --> 01:32:31.119
As we move on from act one to act two.
01:32:32.000 --> 01:32:32.960
What is our recording time?
01:32:33.600 --> 01:32:34.800
We're at an hour and a half.
01:32:34.960 --> 01:32:35.600
How do we feel?
01:32:35.680 --> 01:32:39.119
Do we want to uh continue or do we want to uh pick back up?
01:32:39.279 --> 01:32:43.199
It's up to because it's 11 o'clock his time.
01:32:43.439 --> 01:32:43.680
Yeah.
01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:44.800
That is true.
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:50.640
We can call it here and then probably do a longer session to make up for it next time.
01:32:50.960 --> 01:32:51.279
Okay.
01:32:51.680 --> 01:32:52.640
That makes sense to me.
01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:54.560
Hey, we got we got we got some action already.
01:32:54.720 --> 01:32:55.039
We did, yeah.
01:32:56.319 --> 01:33:03.279
We actually got our uh we actually get to see what like a drama scene combat looks like versus finale combat, which is very different.
01:33:03.439 --> 01:33:03.600
Yeah.
01:33:03.920 --> 01:33:16.800
Um I do think that just just to uh to end the situation here, after after fair play uh vanishes, uh the camp panel cuts over to where Owen is standing and he is no longer there as well.
01:33:17.119 --> 01:33:17.520
Cool.
01:33:17.760 --> 01:33:18.319
Ooh.
01:33:20.720 --> 01:33:21.520
It's in the back.
01:33:21.600 --> 01:33:22.159
There we go.
01:33:22.319 --> 01:33:22.720
Nice.
01:33:22.880 --> 01:33:28.399
I'm putting I'm putting you up here to show that it's I have control the prize, B E.
01:33:29.199 --> 01:33:30.479
I should also move this to the back.
01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:37.359
Don't so don't know how Owen feels about being uh told to retrieve a Japanese sword when he's Korean, but you know.
01:33:37.760 --> 01:33:39.119
Don't worry about it.
01:33:39.760 --> 01:33:40.560
Look, it's fine.
01:33:40.800 --> 01:33:41.760
It's literally fine.
01:33:42.000 --> 01:33:43.359
It's a magic sword, okay?
01:33:43.520 --> 01:33:47.359
It's like a weird uh uh Eldritch sword.
01:33:47.439 --> 01:33:48.159
